Ely Monastic Barn

The barn and storehouse of the Ely Abbey was built circa 1575. It stands to the south of Ely Porta (one of the abbey gates), which was built towards the end of the sixteenth century. It has 7 bays. The eastern part, of 5 bays, was used as a granary and the western part as a storehouse. A floor has been inserted and extra windows pierced through the walls. It is now the refectory and offices for the King’s School
